While I can agree that this is better than most people on here would admit, it's not even close to their previous albums. There’s a couple of great songs, but most of it is definitely filler material, regardless of how you define that term. I just can’t imagine that anyone who understands why Casus Luciferi or Sworn to the Dark are first-class would consider this album to be on the same level. Anyway, if you agree with this and simply compare the latest album to other releases this year, I don't blame you.
